This needs a "(2003)" in the title, so that people realize how old this information is. The (last?) version of the software mentioned is archived in https://github.com/swish-e/swish-e
As a rule of thumb, I never assume a Hacker News article was recently published. XD
Lots of old gems being posted after years.

It all still works tho :)
how does is compare to e.g. xapian?
One caveat appears to be index size, though:
> The indices can get large. In our example index of HTML files, the index occupies about 11MB, about one-fourth the size of the original files indexed.
